Hi Nico!! It's good to see you back!! I hope you had a good time on your travels!! Great photos for the theme!! beautiful red rose in the first shot, looks great against the blue sky and white clouds. Tasty food in the second photo. Indian food is one of my favourites, so I appreciated this one!! Aaah, now I think the third and fourth photos were taken in Wales!! Had to smile at you holding the umbrella.....good old Welsh rain!! LOL. And, of course, the towers of the castle in the background tells me the fourth shot was taken at Conwy!!

Fascinating pictures, Nico. The tandoori chicken looks very delicious. I love seeing you and your wife with the red umbrella. My favorite is the seagull on the phone booth, doubtless wondering if they will serve him. Or he might just take away, as they are prone to do.

Hi Nico, that's a great shot of the rose. Nice plating of the tandoori chicken on the red tablecloth. Two great travel photos. The first one of you and your wife holding the red umbrella. I like the contrast of the red telephone booth and the castle in the background.

Welcome To Picture This

Welcome to the new home for the 'Picture This' photographic group, originally on Multiply. This is a 'closed' group. Although anyone can follow the group, and comment on posts, only approved contributors can actually take part. If you wish to apply to be an approved contributor please send a request to picturethisTNG@gmail.com. We hold a weekly 'challenge' where the host chooses a theme and members can post up to three images of their own to match that theme.

Rules For Weekly Challenges

The rules are similar to when Picture This was on Multiply, with a few differences. As always, please post a maximum of three photos each. The Picture This page on Blogger is optimised for image size 640 x 480, so please try to post images NO LARGER than this to avoid distorting the page or overlapping onto the right-rail. Blogger has a storage limit for photos uploaded directly to the site, so please use copy/paste of HTML from storage sites such as Flickr or Photobucket as much as you can. Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not allow posting of images in comment boxes, so anyone taking part should put their photos, along with any accompanying text, in a separate post here on the PT main page, making sure the challenge number and theme are in the title line. Please note that the posts will appear in reverse order. After the host has posted the challenge, all contribution posts will appear above it on the main page, so you will have to scroll down the main page to find the host's post.

Challenge Albums & Flickr

Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not have facility for photo albums, so Picture This now has it's own associated Flickr account, where albums will be uploaded to . Once on Flickr, they will then be cross-posted to Blogger (all of this part is done by the admins, just like the albums were on Multiply). Each challenge album will appear on it's own tabbed page, along with a Flickr slideshow of the album. The cross-post only shows the first 24 images as thumbnails, to see the whole album, either watch the slideshow, or click on the little blue link between the thumbnails and the slideshow. Only the most recent three challenge albums will show on tabbed pages, to see earlier albums, you will need to go to the Picture This Flickr page. CLICK HERE TO GO TO FLICKR PAGE. Our Flickr account has tight copyright controls, so your photos are as safe as on your own Flickr page.
